it depends how responsible the father is and how responsible the grandma is
In the United States, a fit mother will almost always win custody over a grandmother. There would need to be some other considerations for a grandmother to win.
if the grandmother has current custody i think so depends on the provinces/states laws
She needs to consult with an attorney. Both parents would need to consent to a guardianship with the grandmother as guardian. If the mother doesn't want custody then the father would be the one with legal standing for sole custody.She needs to consult with an attorney.

How often is the father awarded custody of the child over the mother in North Carolina?
If the father did not sign the birth certificate, then you already have sole custody.
No. Only the grandparents who have custody over you can give you consent to do so. And even then, they may not be able to give you permission to live with your other grandparents, depending on why you other grandparents were not given custody over you in the first place.
Wording the question the way you did makes me wonder if you should. I changed it. see link below
No he does not.
It would depend on who the father is to you. If the one who does not want to sign over is your father he makes the decision if he has custody. If you are concerned about this you should talk to a teacher, clergy person, or trusted adult who can help you
No. Legal custody must be established by a court order.
No. In fact, she would find herself in trouble with the court if she turned the child over to the father if she is the one who is the child’s legal guardian. If she no longer wants the responsibility then she should return to court and let the court make new arrangements. The father can seek legal custody through the court system.
If the father has legal custody the child should live with him. What does the custody agreement say?
